School start and finish times
Please ensure your child arrives punctually to school every day. We expect students to be in their form rooms or assembly and ready to start the day at 8.40am. We ask that students do not arrive earlier to school than 8am as there is no supervision before this time. At the end of the day, students should make their way home straight away unless they are engaged in a school activity or attending Homework Club. We cannot supervise students after school who are just waiting on-site to be collected. Homework Club is available until 4:30pm.
